ton was working at his forge, putting
new steel in pick. The steel was
slightly burned in the heating and,
instead Of welding, flew in half a
dozen pieces One piece struck the
blacksmith just above the right eye
with such force as to fasten itself in
firmly. The blacksmith staggered
and fell backward. How long he
was Unconscious he does not know,
but when he revived the dog lay al
most in the middle of the shop cry
ing almost like a human being, and
rubbing his jaws in the dust of the
floor. The piece of steel that had
struck Mr.. Templeton lay short
distance from the dog. The faithful
brute had seized the hot steel with
his teeth and drawn it from the front
al bone of MIR. Templeton's head.
The dogs mouth was badly burned.
